I'm assuming so because the rule is about using coded words the general public doesn't know. I'm assuming that if you're on a diapering board, and with the fact that we have a sticky with the break out of what a diaper acronym is, then it's ok. But on the military forum, when we get into talking military, it can be full of acronyms the "general public" doesn't know.

I know... lots of "a$$umptions" in there, but that's my thinking on it. Lemme have another beer and I might be able to make it clear as mud!

I would like to see something like this as well -- I am almost paranoid to post because I don't want to break a rule! Maybe something that is totally mod/admin run -- as in we pm them our questions and they post them to a locked thread? I can see how it would get a bit nutzy if it was left totally open -- but it would be nice to have questions answered and see the answers to others questions (so each admin/mod isn't getting 500 of the same questions)!

as far as the letters go, of course you can still abreviate(spelll?) diapers and stuff like that, that rule is so that you dont put xldkjlsdjkfalskj in your siggy with your group of friends and you are the only ones who know what it is.

hope that helps to explain it

feel free to pm me or any other mod/admin and we/i will try to help you understand it

Great idea! I feel exactly the same as you, don't want to pi$$ anyone off, just want some answers so I don't get myself in too much trouble... I didn't even know about the 3 strikes policy... I doubt I will last longer than a year with that going on
